Cybersecurity Maturity Assessment

Evaluate your security posture and identify gaps which could be exploited by threat actors with a CrowdStrike®️ Cybersecurity Maturity Assessment.

The challenge

Given the complexity of today’s evolving threat landscape, organizations are faced with an important question: How capable are you at preventing, detecting and responding to today’s most advanced adversaries? Most organizations struggle with these challenges.

Time and resources

Organizations lack the time and resources needed to conduct a thorough evaluation of their capabilities. For many, keeping up with day-to-day security operations is more than they can handle, straining limited resources and budgets.

Expertise

Organizations lack the expertise and experience to conduct an objective and detailed assessment of their capabilities. Staff may not be fully up to speed on the latest threat landscape, or in many cases, the organization may not trust its staff’s findings without the support of an outside expert.

Theory vs. reality

Existing internal documentation and processes may be misleading because playbooks and other documentation have not been updated to reflect changes in the threats the organization faces, and in the security tools and technologies that have been deployed.

Focus

Although executives and board members may recognize cyber threats as a top risk facing their organization, a deeper understanding of what this means is often missing. The types of threats and their impact can vary greatly, and even those organizations that recognize the risk can get stuck in an endless audit and compliance struggle — unable to see the forest for the trees.

What CrowdStrike delivers

The CrowdStrike Cybersecurity Maturity Assessment strategically focuses on supporting capabilities that will assist you with your overall cybersecurity programs.

Then, knowing that you can’t prevent everything, organizations must learn how to detect and respond to the threats that exist in their environments.
  • Document review CrowdStrike will review relevant internal cybersecurity documentation and then meet with individuals within the organization who understand how your existing cybersecurity program works in reality – regardless of what the documentation may say.
  • Capabilities review It includes thorough review of capabilities, along with recommendations to improve maturity in six key cybersecurity areas: security foundations, detection, prevention, response, governance and threat intelligence.
  • Executive summary report You receive an executive summary report including key strengths, areas for improvement, and associated recommendations, along with a determination of overall cybersecurity maturity, as determined through the assessment.
